Pete,

Assuming that you have done the yaw measurements and calculations correctly, with a middle ordinate that you can measure reliably and a good value for the coefficient of friction, what about information used for the momentum analysis? How reliably do you know the angles of travel before and after impact? What are the relative weights of the vehicles? Have you done a sensitivity analysis on your momentum analysis to see what the effects of changing the angles are?
